Did you know that in 1952 Menachem Begin, the future prime minister of Israel and head of a Jewish terrorist group Irgun attempted to assassinate West German chancellor Konrad Adenauer, murdering a German policeman in the process, but that West German government suppressed reporting of that assassination attempt so that antisemitism wouldn't increase again in West Germany?
Imagine how the world would have reacted if a communist assassin attempted to murder the West German chancellor, would the West German government have tried to hide it to avoid anticommunist sentiment increasing?
